Re: instant oatmeal

What are the ingredients? I would want to avoid it if it contains a lot of sugar, salt, artificial falvours/colours, or preservaties. None of that is good for babies. Why not make real old fassioned oatmeal from rolled oats? That way, you know exactly what's going into your baby. Either way, definately avoid the milk (unless you're using breastmilk on his! ); cow milk should not be given to babies under 12 mo as there is a very high alergy risk and it can cause bleeding in the intestines which can lead to anemia.
